create a virtual drive on emulator

[masoud_bayat]

Hi all
we need to understand how we can create a virtual drive in emulator.
we use s60_fp23 emulator.
this is our epoc.ini file:

configuration epoc_176x208.ini
configuration epoc_240x320.ini
configuration epoc_352x416.ini
_EPOC_DRIVE_E C:\temp

only we added to epoc.ini red line.
but this error arised up.

C:\symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\Epoc32\Data\Epoc.ini contains errors.
the only entries valid in a master ini file containing one or
more "Configuration" entries are blank lines and comments starting with #

[bdonegan]

Well the error is self explanatory isn't it? It's saying that since your epoc.ini contains configuration entries, you can't have normal entries in there two. You will need to create another configuration (say call it drives.ini) and put the _EPOC_DRIVE_E in there. Then add the line 'configuration drives.ini' to your epoc.ini

That should do the trick.

The error message is quite explicit, isn't it. Move your drive definition statement to one of the specific configuration files, e.g. epoc_176x208.ini

Btw, may find that the E: drive is already defined.

with create a virtual drive, u need 2 step.

1. update C:\Symbian\8.0a\S60_2nd_FP2_CW\Epoc32\Data\epoc.ini,
like

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \Symbian\8.0a\S60_2nd_FP2_CW\epoc32\winscw\d


add

_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.0a\S60_2nd_FP2_CW\epoc32\winscw\e

2. mkdir \Symbian\8.0a\S60_2nd_FP2_CW\epoc32\winscw\e

Thanks all for quik reply
Dear itomuta
we do it.
but emulator can't work and is stoped.

[masoud_bayat]

Dear qxiaoyuan
we do it too.
but pervios error repeated.

[qxiaoyuan]

could you show your epoc.ini.

on s60 fp22, I verify that it is work.

[masoud_bayat]

Hi qxiaoyuan
this is our epoc.ini

configuration epoc_176x208.ini
configuration epoc_240x320.ini
configuration epoc_352x416.ini
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e

we mkdir \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e

[qxiaoyuan]

you' d better move this line in epoc_176x208.ini.
and try again.

just notify,
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e

follow by

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \Symbian\8.0a\S60_2nd_FP2_SC\epoc32\wins\d
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e

[masoud_bayat]

Dear qxiaoyuan
we modified epoc_176x208.ini
in this face :

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \epoc32\wins\d
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e
_EPOC_LocDrv_1 E:

but emulator stoped and can not loaded.

[qxiaoyuan]

update

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \epoc32\wins\d
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e
_EPOC_LocDrv_1 E:


to

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \epoc32\wins\d
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e

[masoud_bayat]

update

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \epoc32\wins\d
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e
_EPOC_LocDrv_1 E:


to

_EPOC_DRIVE_D \epoc32\wins\d
_EPOC_DRIVE_E \Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3\epoc32\winscw\e

we do it.
but still the problem exist.
